This website has been designed to teach children about the importance and potential fun that derives from spending time with friends outdoors. Instead of using negative reinforcement stating such things as the negatives of video games we primarily focus on the positives of outdoors and imaginative play with friends. As Interactive media developers we do see the benefits in technologies such as video games and other addictive medias though we firmly believe that all things are good in moderation and that video games are not inherently “bad” through addiction within such media can do potential harm to younger individuals.
Moderation is key, as stated above we do not view video games as a negative experience for young individuals though through prolonged use it does have the potential to create an addictive nature within younger individuals. As a parent you have control over your child’s gaming moderation and we strongly encourage you to not create a bad stigma surrounding games but to create a good stigma towards outside play. Some of the ways you could encourage your children to play outside is through created actives such as treasure hunts and other fun outdoor games.
